Leviticus 8:32 Meaning and Commentary

Leviticus 8:32

And that which remaineth of the flesh and of the bread,
&c.] Until the next morning, which could not be eaten by Aaron and his sons:

shall ye burn with fire;
that it might not be corrupted, nor put to common nor superstitious uses.

Leviticus 8:32 In-Context

30 And taking the ointment, and the blood that was upon the altar, he sprinkled Aaron, and his vestments, and his sons, and their vestments with it.
31 And when he had sanctified them in their vestments, he commanded them, saying: Boil the flesh before the door of the tabernacle, and there eat it. Eat ye also the loaves of consecration, that are laid in the basket, as the Lord commanded me, saying: Aaron and his sons shall eat them.
32 And whatsoever shall be left of the flesh and the loaves, shall be consumed with fire.
33 And you shall not go out of the door of the tabernacle for seven days, until the day wherein the time of your consecration shall be expired. For in seven days the consecration is finished:
34 As at this present it hath been done, that the rite of the sacrifice might be accomplished.
